The One I Should've Married (Stella and Sebastian) novel Chapter 54

She was terrifying, genuinely terrifying.

Faced with Stella's psychotic demeanor, Vivienne didn't dare try to negotiate terms anymore!

Since she couldn't take Julian away, she scrambled to find an excuse to leave.

She needed to rush back to Sinclair Manor and strategize with the elders before the City Registry opened.

Asher answered an incoming call.

He leaned in and whispered in Stella's ear, "Xander is throwing a tantrum and screaming that she's going to kill you."

Hearing this, Stella raised an eyebrow.

"Oh? Really?"

Asher smirked. "She clearly hasn't grasped the reality of the situation!"

She had been trapped and heavily guarded since last night, and she still had the nerve to act tough!

Vincent had really spoiled her into thinking she was untouchable.

Did she honestly think that just because the Channing Corporation was in Vincent's hands, and her mother had successfully played the homewrecker, she was the rightful heiress to the Channing family?

Stella's voice was ice. "If she hasn't grasped the reality, then let's give her a very clear lesson."

Thinking about how Xander had pranced around at public events as the 'Channing Heiress' for the past three years made Stella's eyes go cold...

Asher nodded. "Your orders?"

"I'll deal with her right after I finish getting divorced."

"Understood."

After all, nothing was more critical right now than finalizing the divorce with Julian. It had to be done before Sebastian returned!

Stella sneered. "Pass a message to her. Tell her to thoroughly enjoy these last few moments of peace!"

Threatening to kill her?

Sure, over the years, plenty of people had wanted Stella dead, but Xander wasn't one of them!

Neither she nor Valerie—the twins Beatrice birthed—had what it takes.

Knowing he couldn't change the outcome, Julian stopped struggling.

Seeing how fractured Stella's relationship with the Channings was, he couldn't resist throwing a final insult. "See? The Channing family doesn't even want you. Your stepmother and your siblings run the show now."

Vincent had never liked her.

So, if she thought she could just waltz back into the Channing family after the divorce, she was completely delusional.

He really had no idea what was going through her head...

She had nowhere to go after the divorce, yet she was acting this arrogant about leaving the Sinclairs!

Hearing the word 'siblings,' the look in Stella's eyes instantly turned freezing cold.
